What do you think of this guy? I want to get it graded, but I can't figure out exactly how much it would cost. She's a pretty coin, though.   |

Very nice find. What is the retail value? Just checked the bay and in MS66 it goes for around $250-$350. I am not good at grading,but yours looks to be 66-67. As a general rule,a coin needs to be worth at least $150 to justify all costs involved to have slabbed. I think you should use PCGS. John1  |

Keep them all safe in 2X2's for now. You can check ebay to see what they are going for? Sell them one at a time. Don't dump them all at once. (Flood the market, the price goes down) Pick the best one for yourself, then sell the others, s l o w l y.  |

There were 6. I have had them for awhile. I still have the best 3. They seem pretty spotless, but it doesn't really matter until I get them slabbed, I figure. A buddy of mine had one graded for me, and it came back a 66, but he doesn't remember what it costs. I'm far from rich, and just don't want to end up bankrupting myself getting my favorite coins graded.  |

Very good advice from coop. I did not know about this variety, I only search cents. It looks like the eagle got hit by a cross bow bolt. Quote:Here's the kicker...I found several in the roll.&& Was it an original bank roll? |

But if they grade 67 or 68 they would be worth thousands each  ,check ebay sold values. John1 |

Thank you, John1, and yes, DrDon, they are from an original bank roll.

I thought so. That is the best reason for searching OBRs, multiple MS examples of anything you find. I hunt mostly for cents. Years ago I found over 100 examples of a "bar on column" type double die going through a box of OBRs.
